5 hours Live Performance
Links Hall Chicago, USA
2017
Ğ is a performance based on the repeated vocalization of the Turkish letter ğ. Although it is considered a silent letter, I continuously produce its guttural sound throughout the work. Unable to appear at the beginning of a word, ğ occupies a unique position within the Turkish language.
Developed in response to the ongoing struggles surrounding sexual orientation and gender identity in Turkey, the performance extends a single sound through repetition, duration, and breath.
